Greetings
We are interested in gaining some insight into what our customer base feels about these two separate product lines. Please fill out the poll above, but also submit your experiences, stories, reviews, and any other comments you may have below as this is something we are interested to find out about. Please keep it mature and professional, of course.

At this time, we do not carry either line, but are considering carrying one or both if it's something that would make our customers happy.

If you're unfamiliar with these lines you can check out this website: www.GTHaus.com (Link, not an endorsement)

I don't own the product and it may be great product but the past events from the original rep. definitely have hurt the brand name

+1 I like what I've heard from the videos on youtube, but I can honestly say that if I'm spending $x,xxx, I'll look elsewhere. Don't hurt your image. The few transactions I've had with you were great and I think carrying their products could steer people away from a good sponsor.

One cool thing is that they have dozens and dozens of exhausts of each type in stock, which is stellar for high-ticket items of this nature - ESPECIALLY considering there are multiple versions for each car. That's a big plus for us, and for our customers.

I wasn't a member of this (or any) BMW related forum during the time any controversy occurred with this vendor, so I can't and won't comment on that. I also can't speak to the quality of the product. The sound of the Meisterschaft exhaust on the M3 is very impressive, but I would never install that exhaust on my car regardless of price or quality because it's not a sound that I want to deal with on a day to day basis.

I was in the market for a great sounding exhaust and it came down to two different makes, the Meisterschaft GT1 and the Eisenmann Race. I always do an extensive research on purchases in that price range so I knew almost everything about both products. I am also lucky enough to live in Chicago where both GThaus and IND are located.

I have to admit, after reading everything I read about GThaus and Meisterschaft I was leaning more torwards the Eisenmann. IND had great customer service and always replied to my questions very quickly. They never once pressured me to buy their product, they gave me great price quotes plus free installation. When I asked them what seperates them from Meisterschaft, they never once said anything bad about the product, they just stated what differentiated themselves from most of the exhaust products out on the market. However, I favored the sound of the Meisterschaft more.

I have to admit, after reading all the negative comments about Meisterschaft I really needed some type of assurance from somone who actually owned the product who could tell me how well it has held up and how they liked it before I even considered to set foot into GThaus. I PM'd a few guys who had the Meisterschaft on their cars and they all had nothing but great things to say about their exhaust. This gave me the motivation to go further and check out GThaus in person.

I went over to GThaus to check out the exhaust in person. The guy at GThaus actually opened up an already packaged Meisterschaft GT1 and pulled it out for me. He pointed out the quality of the welding, material, tips, and even pulled out the SR connecting pipes which would make the system a complete bolt on system. The guys there seemed very down to earth and good guys in general. I saw nothing that resembled "shady" during my visit to GThaus.

GThaus quoted me a price that I felt was great so I decided to go with them. Again, the guys at GThaus never once pressured me to purchase their product and never once did they say anything bad about their competition. They just showed me their product and gave me a price for it.

The next week I brought my E93 in and they installed it. I actually watched them install it in person. They didn't have to cut the cross bar that is on the E93's in order to fit the SR pipes on which was one of my concerns. It truely was a genuine bolt on system.

My other concern was how loud it was going to sound and the amount of drone there would be in the car. I gotta tell you, the first time they started up my car with the Meisterschaft on, it gave me goosebumps. It sounded sexy as all hell! It was not too loud at all. When I took it around the block, there was little to no drone and any drone there was, was a great sounding drone. It was the perfect amount of tone for the car.

The guys over at GThaus was always very professional and seemed to take pride in what they did. They were very down to earth and even invited me to sit down and eat pizza with them. My experience with GThaus was a great one. I'm very satisfied with their product, their customer service, and their follow up (they have called me a number of times to see how I liked it).

They may have a bad reputation in the past but my experience with them has been great. I am not sure of the whole story of about what happend with the company or if what they did was unethical or not but I always believe that there are two sides to any story. I gave GThaus a chance to prove themselves to me and they passed with flying colors.

The botom line is, I am completely satisfied with the Meisterschaft and I would recomend it to anyone who is in the market for an exhaust. You selling these products would not hinder any business you would get from me. There are a handfull of mods I am going to be getting from you very soon!

^I'm going to piggyback on what you just said and agree. I currently have the Meis. GT catback on my 135i and I think it's a great sounding exhaust. I have people asking me all the time what kind of exhaust it is. I even had the SA's at the dealership raving over it recently. In the end I'm happy with it and it's the exact sound I was looking for.

I'm interested in both. I've forgiven GT Haus and love the way the Meisterschaft sounds, but I am interested in the Kreissieg even more so. I've spent a good deal of time in the past looping videos of Kreissieg Ferrari 360's on YouTube over and over and was curious if they did anything good with the e9x M3. Then after hearing this, how can I not be?

I wasn't a member during the whole Eisenhaus/Eisenmann scandal so I cannot tell you weather they are a shady company or not. What I will say is that when it comes to exhaust you're not getting it for the major HP/TQ gains because in all honesty there are only minimal gains with an aftermarket muffler. It comes down to sound. When I was in the market for an aftermarket exhaust it came down to Eisenmann, Eisenhaus/GTHaus and Remus. Between the Eisenmann and Eisenhaus I gotta say that I liked the Meisterschaft exhaust sound the best. Although I was always hesitant to purchase it because of all the negative comments that were made with regards to the business practices of the company. In the end I ended up with the Remus exhaust as I don't feel that there is any justification to charge >$2K for a muffler that only changes the sound of your car. As long as the exhaust is made of quality materials and craftsmanship than I think we should give them a chance. I would not hesitate to purchase GTHaus products as long as they have proven to produce quality products that have been proven by the end user (you and I). I would not think any less of you guys for selling their products although if GTHaus products are found to be crap than you will be affected by that because of your association. So do your homework before you make the decision to sell their products.

I like the idea of giving people second chances, but Eisenhaus/GTHaus hasn't exhibited the slightest bit of remorse since they were busted. Until this day, they post on various forums with the most egotistical and confrontative attitude I've ever seen. They deny everything they did. If I had done what they did, I would apologize, accept responsibility, and move on with life. It would show that I'm trying to be a decent person. They've done none of this.

JLevi, you can resell Kreissieg products in NA with no Eisenhaus association. Contact Kreissieg directly and become a reseller. They're a stand-up company and deserve success w/ their fantastic products. On the other hand: myself and many others would lose much respect for you if you started to deal with Eisenhaus. Like they say: "If you sleep with dogs, you're going to get fleas."

It is unfair to lump Kreissieg into the Eisenhaus / GTHaus discussion. They are a separate company and it was imported by Eisenhaus / GTHaus in the US. If JLeviSW decides to become a Kreissieg exhaust dealer, they better deal with Kreissieg directly. They are solid products with a great track record .

As far as Eisenhaus / GTHaus "Meisterschaft" line goes, most people on here knows my feeling towards them. In fact, we had quite an exchange about a month ago. I'm also into giving people second chances in life, but they blew it badly.

I was astonished that they had the guts of pretending to be an innocent bystander (as member "Zanzabar") on M3 Post and shill for their own products. They also unapologetically defended their practice. When confronted, they went ballistic on me and accusing me of various different things. However, when properly called out by me, they decided to stop responding completely. I, for one, am glad that Remus exposed their identity. It also speaks volume on the ethics of this business, as well as the twisted minds of the people that run this company. If you decided to deal with them again, that's fine, because it's your business.
